Muffin top... the dreaded description that every girl wants to avoid. That bulge that hangs over your jeans like a muffin over its wrapping. The unbearable sight of too small of jeans and not so small waist line, the muffin top lingers on the horizon awaiting its next victim.
Muscle and Fitness Hers created a questionnaire that could help in the battle of the bulge:
1. Do you have good posture?
2. Are you training your abs from the inside out?
3. Are you getting plenty of sleep and avoiding stress?
4. Do you eat breakfast?
If you answered NO to any of these questions and you have a muffin top, there are some ways to fix your flabby frustration.
First, look at your posture profile in a mirror to see if you have an exaggerated arch in your back that makes your stomach stick out. A great way to help in aiding perfect posture is stretching.
Second, stop the ordinary crunches and re-evaluate the way you're working your abs. When you perform regular crunches, you are just creating a thickness around your abs making your stomach protrude outwards.
Next, when you're stressed out, not getting the proper rest and guzzling down coffee, chances are you have high levels of Cortisol. Research has shown that high levels of Cortisol leaves fat around your midsection.
Last, DON'T SKIP BREAKFAST! Even if you're not hungry in the early hours, eat a high protein meal because this will boost your metabolism and get your body moving, even when your mind is still fast asleep.
